'Tho Governor and his leaders announced they would pass the alien landbill ns drafted to-day by Attnrney-Gen-eralWebb. So determined Is the nttltltude assumed by the State administration that Senator Roynton, floorleader In the Senate, gave nut the following statement :"It is my firm belief that the Legislature of California will pass withinthe next few days an alien land billwhich by Its terms will provide thatonly those aliens who are ellglhle tocitizenship under the laws of the UnitedStntes may acquire land in Callfmrnin."Mr, Bryan was nsked to-night forsomo expression nf opinion,"Say that the only thing you couldget out of me." the Secretary said, "wasthat I stated I came here merely totransmit to tho Legislature the viewaof the President, nnd that 1 am pleasedwith the admirable spirit in which Ihave been met."At 9 o'clock both houses of the. Legislature met again In tho AssemblyChamber for a final conference with tht.Secretary before he leaves for San Francisco In the morning. The hour of thoconference was delayed because Mr.Bryan was receiving the reply of thoPresident, to whom he had transmittedn copy of the proposed bill.The bill Is as follows, In part;Section 1. All aliens eligible tn citizenship under Ihe laws of the United.States may acqulie, possess, enjoy, transI mlt and Inherit real property, or any In-te.est therein.

He says It carriesthe sting of discrimination, whichmight have been avoided If Bryan's advice hud been heeded.As Dr. Jordan nnd Bryan hnvo lieenIn accord In their utterances in the lusttwo days It may be assumed that whatJordan Kiys of this bill Is vvhol lirjunthinks of It.Bryan insists that he "hull not boquoted and refiibes to mnko public Umtenor of despatches I'.ul puwl l.u
